Getting back to the intent of this board, here are a few of my suggestions for Audiophile recordings (and I'll also include a few labels and a website that only caters to audiophile recordings):

David Manley Recordings (put out by fone´ records) http://www.fone.it/believe_en.php

Patricia Barber "Cafe Blue"

Jen Chapin "Songs of Stevie Wonder" on Chesky

Ludus Daniels "Daniel and The Lions" on fone´

The Neville Brothers "Yellow Moon"

Captain Luke and Cool John "Outsiders Lounge Music"

I Musici (on fone´ or XRCD you can't go wrong)

Jackson Brown "Solo Acoustic" (I have volume 2 which is amazing to listen to)

And of course Pink Floyd's "The Wall" (not the Mobile Fidelity's gold label recording of this.. it's complete garbage of a recording.. and I spent $30.00 to find that out )

There are a number of excellent labels that only produce audiophile recordings.
One of the best known, but now consistently the most unreliable (in terms of receiving your order) is Chesky.
Elusive Disc
the home of XRCD carries only audiophile grade cd's and LP's in every genre from many labels: FIM, RR, Chesky, Audioquest, fone´, etc..

fone´ is just amazing.. The man that owns it and produces the recordings.. what can I say? Just like Italian clothes and cars, fone´ recordings are Italian made and worth every penny
